Is the Que color or touch screen?

Touch yes, color no.

When I first saw this I wasn't overly impressed but it's really starting to grow on me now. Obviously it's not going to take the place of any eReaders designed specifically for novel reading but it looks like it might be exactly what I need.

The large screens will be good for technical/scientific papers or even books. The wacom digitizer with the stylus mean I can add notes to papers and things as I go along. I could even use it to correct labs that are submitted electronically, without having to print them out. The colour LCD would also give me some freedom to look up things on the web without pulling out my laptop.

While not for everyone, I think there might be some kind of market out there for this (at least 1 person....). I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this over the next few months. Of course everything interesting in the world of eBook readers is eternally 3-6months away

I agree... it wouldn't be my primary fiction reader... but for technical books and PDA type functions it might work well. Sort of like a combo of a netbook and a reader.

Yeap. I was thinking of getting something like the Archos 9", as well as a bigger screen e-reader. That will eventually fill both use.

I might get one, if it's ever available in Europe and no one have gotten something else by then.
